A: I’m sorry, I was detained in Paris on business.

B: How is business in general?

A: I must say that we aren’t quite satisfied with our present sales. We used to get reular large orders from a number of the largest hotels and restaurants in England but lately we have been doing less business with them.

B: I’m surprised to hear it. How do you account for this decline in the amount of your orders? We don’t feel here at all that the demand for caviar is weaker than before. On the contrary, we are getting now more enquiries than ever.

A: I wouldn’t say that there is a big decrease in the volume of our business, but many hotels are inclined to use, instead of caviar, cheaper stuffs like lobsters or oysters, for instance. I hope you are not going to raise your prices this year.

B: As a matter of fact, our prices now about 10 per cent higher than last year.

A: What are you prices now? We’ve written to you that we need altogether about 20 tons of caviar.

B: Our prices today are … shillings for beluga caviar, … shillings for osetrova and … shillings for pressed per pound FAS St. Petersburg. The terms of payment would be the same as in our old contract.

A: Can’t you reduce your increase from 10 per cent to 5 per cent.

B: I’m sorry, it’s impossible.

A: I think I’ll have to cable my Board of Directors and ask them if they agree to your present prices. I’ll call here against as soon as I get their answer.

B: All right. But I must tell you that we can hold these prices open for your acceptance till the 3^rd February only.

Conversation

Broker: Hello, is that Rossexport? This is Mr. Simpson speaking. Is Mr. Ivanov there?

Manager: Mr. Ivanov speaking.

Broker: We have enquiry for about 5000 tons of wheat on sample 4 but it is impossible to obtain your price limit.

Manager: What figure can you get?

Broker: I think not more than 32 pounds although we are doing our best.

Manager: This parcel is of special quality. Don’t sell this wheat below 33 pounds, please.

Broker: But this means the shillings above the price of the last parcel.

Manager: The difference is quite reasonable considering the high quality of the wheat.

Broker: There’s another difficulty. Buyers want December shipment instead of January.

Manager: Offer them, please, 15^th December – 15^th January. Should they insist on December shipment, call us again and we’ll see in the meantime whether we can arrange tonnage. And what about barley?

Broker: There’s little demand just now, as there are large stocks of maize in Liverpool. Besides, large shipments of maize are expected from the States.

Manager: But you’ve heard of our sales of barley in Rotterdam and Antwerp, haven’t you?

Broker: Yes, I have, but the situation is different here. I’m expecting a bid from a large manufacturer of feeding stuffs. May I agree to January shipment?

Manager: Yes, you may.

Broker: All right. I’ll call you up again tomorrow. Good-bye.

Manager: Good-bye.
